MOTUC Tuvar and Baddra?

OK, so we know we are getting parts to make Kronis with Trap Jaw, and there have been hints that Keldor will be a future bonus figure. Oedipus will probably be packed with Stinkor.

Two Bad will probably be a long way off (or maybe not). Do you think we will get Tuvar and Baddra as separate figures or a 2-pack, maybe as a bonus? Also, how cool would it be if there were extra parts included with Tuvar and Baddra to allow them to be merged into Two Bad?

I'm gonna say it before somebody does.
TUVAR AND BADDRA ARE NOT CLASSIC CHARACTERS AND THIS IS A CLASSICS LINE! THEY HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING HERE! TWO-BAD IS THE ONLY THING WE NEED! GIVE ME THE ACTION FEATURE LIKE THE CLASSIC ONE!!! I LVOE ACTION FEATURES THEY'RE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!
Now that that's been said, This addition would be cool, to the line. (Bonus two-pack)

I would be content with only a Two-Bad release. But, should Matty release a Tuvar and Baddra 2-pack, I would not be opposed to it. I wouldn't buy it, but I wouldn't oppose it, either. A vintage inspired Two-Bad is good enough for me.

I believe that Tuvar and Baddhra are perfect for the first two-pack. And wouldn't it be cool he they were the bonus figure set the same month Two-Bad was released?

Count me in too. Making those two would be expensive with a bunch of new parts. Definitely later run characters along with most of the Horde or Snake Men.

Damn...soon MOTUC is going to run out of those He-Man and Skeletor buck bodies...

that's a good thing...i'm getting tired of feeling like i'm buying the same figure every month. Bring on all new molds! It'd be about damn time, imo. for a $20 Adult collector's line, every figure should be a whole new mold imo...I hope they DON'T wait till the end to give us the Horde, snakemen or other 'new parts' figures....by then it might be too late if they decide to cancel motu (again). Any one of them can be made right now, not 'later'. If they can make Teela & Battlecat, they can certainly make any of the others as well imo.

i hope this is a joke.... the word 'classic' sure gets thrown around alot... but it doesn't mean 'vintage', or 'commemorative', so that arguement holds no ground imo.

I'm glad to see others are thinking like me. i thought I was the only one who wanted a Two bad that could separate into his two separate beings....imo, anything new they can give us, that hasn't been done in motu figures before, like parts to make their former selves, is a huge plus and only increases my interest in this line tenfold. it has sooooooo much potential.

IMO Trap-jaw is going to be the greatest motu figure ever made, because of the interchangeable parts....at least till they give us king Hisss with similar features. A two bad figure that could do that would be absolutely incredible imo, and certainly bring him up a few notches in my view (of course he's already one of my favorites).

I like to have pre-versions of some characters made for this line, since their backgrounds (who they used to be) is what makes them fascinating imo.
Bring on Keldor, odephus, teela 'Na, fisto (with normal big hand included), tuvar, baddhra, oldman marzo, young evil lynn, etc....

You want one two-headed guy who fights himself over two bad-ass bounty hunters? I thought you were an evil-doer...

Yes it was a joke. I love the idea of Tuvar and Baddra and love the fact that MOTUC takes in from all of MOTU's continuities, but I dislike the nostlagia blindness that comes with the MOTUC. (Like Requesting Ram Man to be exactly like his past toys... unposeable, the extreme distaste for anything that isn't vintage MOTU... etc.)

love this (except the big flesh hand, but that I can live with...)

The regular month figure would be Two-Bad with his 2 heads, a wide torso (new sculpt), blue right arm & leg, purple left arm & leg and his golden shield. All heads, arms & legs should be removable, the same way as future released Modulok & Multibot.

The bonus figure of that month is Tuvar & Badhra. It contains blue left arm & leg, purple right arm & leg, 2 different torso's, one set of pants, two-part mace and as a bonus his 2 heads in reversed colours.

This way you can make vintage & 200x Two-bad, 200x repaint Two-Bad, Tuvra & Badhra. Plus also other variations.

the two back should include tuvar and badra with weapons AND a torso/hip piece so that you can merge the character. Since they become the one guy. i know people would complain about "not being able to play with all 3 full figures" but as far as tooling, i think this would be the smartest thing to do, and no offense to those who buy 2 or 3 or 4 of MOTUC, but to those, you can just buy another 2 pack for your display needs!

I've thought about this too. I think it would be cool to get them after we get Twobad but only as sort of cheapo kitbash bonus figures. They would be good subscription bonuses as they are not particularly needed but they would be cool to have.

I think it could be a cool idea to have them constructed like build a figures or something. Because of their different textures they would require a lot of new tooling (unless Mattel really cheaps out).
